Well, frankly, it's not my idea.
It's something I've noticed at DFM and I think it could be part of other 24seven.FM stations.
DFM is the only one station from 24seven.FM's family displaying Request Wait time both for non-VIPs and VIPs.
It looks like that:
"Req Wait (RIP)
6 Hrs (30 Mns)"
My opinion is that we should have the same method implemented at SST (and at AFM, EFM and 1980s.FM too).
Until today I was sure that not displaying VIP wait time in Request Wait box was intentional. Now (thanks to DFM) I see it can be different.
I think we should use DFM's way of showing request wait to let people easily find the difference between VIPs and non-VIPs times. From what I remember new members quite often are asking in chat what are the times for VIPs. Changing format of info in Request Wait box should be good way to answer these questions before they are asked.

I suspect that SST will get the changes next. I've noticed that many times new features are FIRST implemented in DFM before being passed into SST and the other stations. I think they just haven't got the changes passed over yet.  I saw the new stuff too... Did you notice the Amazon icon and the favorites icon on the now playing screen?
Like I said... it's just a matter of time while they write the code for the other stations.

Thanks weaponlordzero! I seldom visit DFM (in fact it's the only 24seven.FM station that I'm not registered at as a member) and haven't noticed this before.

Now I see it! I hope you are right WLZ and it's a sign of good things to come to SST

 DFMers are guineas-pigs of mine.
I like to implement the release-candidate codes there because I prefer to mess my home than the others' one. In the case of any problems there, they curse me, I curse them, fix the problem and it is all right. 
Normally, SST is the last to receive a new code. I like to be sure that it will be fine when I update any SST program.

You were right WLZ!
Changes arrived at SST too
I suspect that Pesadelo was involved again 
Thank you Pesa and the rest of the crew.
Once again the pace of changes at SST is outstanding! You are awesome guys!
Edit: my post was written before I saw Pesadelo's post.
Thanks again Pesa!

You can now rate an album by clicking the stars in the now playing too. Thanks for working on this Pesa!

Can we add something (maybe in the pop-up text) to remind users that they're rating the whole album, not just the currently playing track?
Oh, and great work as always, Pesa!

When we click on the stars, it is written : "Rate this album".
Does that answer your question?

That's probably sufficient for many people, platy. I'm obviously below that intelligence threshold, though. Thanks for setting me straight.

Wow another feature I did not know of.
When I wanted to rate an album I always clicked on the album image and rating it there.
Now clicking on the stars is much easier
